What is the difference between the Index button tab and the Search textbox areas of Help Find tab?
The Index searches for Help topics according to subject. The Search textbox Find tab searches for topics according to the words in the topic. For example, if you search for “colour” in the Index, it will show you all the topics about colour, but if you do the same search on the Search textbox Find tab, it will list all the topics with the word “colour” in the text. Note that the Search textbox Find tab in Help is not the same as Search Find on the Start menu and that words used as keywords or the Index need to be in American spelling and not Australian spelling, for example if you used the word colour and not color, then you would find no results.
